Ho cercato di acquistare i biglietti, sono capitato sul vostro sito, facile da usare, veloce ed esplicativo. Senza stamparli, solo sul cellulare, siamo entrati allo spettacolo, interessante e quasi mistico.

Très belle expérience. Explications claires. Nous n'avons jamais eu l'impression dans un attrape-touriste. Prix raisonnable et profits vont à une fondation pour bourses d'études.

Our guide fully explained all the dishes and condiments we had. The restaurant had mostly locals eating there so I believe the food was authentic. All the dishes were enjoyable. Very good experience.

Witness the UNESCO-recognized Mevlevi Sema ceremony, a spiritual ritual blending music, meditation, and whirling dance.

Begin your evening in the Sultahmet or Hagia Sophia area; present your ticket and settle in for the spiritual Mevlevi Sema ceremony.

Your ticket grants access to the full Whirling Dervish ritual, with live Sufi music and mesmerizing dance in a central Old Town venue.

Witness the 1-hour Mevlevi Sema, a moving display of devotion and artistry, as dervishes whirl in authentic tradition before your eyes.

Upgrade your experience with a traditional Turkish dinner including a variety of kebabs, meze, salads, tea, coffee, and künefe.

Deeply spiritual experience with haunting music. Sincerely admire the training and practice that must go into these performances

Experience the Whirling Dervishes & Sufi Dance in Istanbul, with options for a traditional Turkish dinner or an authentic Mevlevi Sema ritual.

Getting started

Arrive at your selected venue in the Sultanahmet or Hagia Sophia area and present your ticket for entry. Depending on your chosen option, you may begin with a traditional Turkish dinner at a nearby restaurant or proceed directly to the performance venue. Seating is arranged upon arrival, so reaching early is recommended.

What to expect

The experience centers around the Mevlevi Sema ceremony, a centuries-old spiritual ritual that represents a dervish’s journey toward divine connection through music and movement. The evening begins with traditional Sufi music, setting a meditative tone before the whirling ritual unfolds. As the dervishes spin in synchronized motion, their performance symbolizes spiritual ascent and inner harmony. Depending on your selected option, your experience may also include a traditional Turkish dinner with regional dishes.
